Reread log. 85

Today I’m reading.

05/11/10- "Jade: Build.” (/homestuck/1817) to 05/14/10 - "==>” (/homestuck/1847)"

Select this thingy to read my commentary

As a refresher, Rose is building John’s base as a player. Dave is building Rose’s base. Then Jade is building Dave’s base. Though Jade hasn't been doing much of that yet. Dave’s been a bit sensitive about Jade's “improvements” after she prototyped a dead bird. Though Dave is currently asleep though and can't really stop Jade from doing changes to his base. Though jade is also asleep she is using Jadebot to use her laptop.

It turns out Jade is actually decent at this. Unlike Rose who was terrible at architecture, Jade's building skills made Dave's sturdy. Her job was difficult. John's house got moved to the top of a giant mesa above the clouds. Rose's home was moved to an island. Dave's apartment got removed from its highrise. It's reattached to a structure of metal beams protruding from a lake of lava. No land to work with. Jade's work is being admired in the dream world of Prospit. She has amassed a small audience of Prospiterians watching her play the game. She mentions she should wake up soon and that her neighbour (John) will be doing the same.

There's a bit of an awkward transition here. Dave is now awake, we don't get a reaction to him seeing his new home. He just smashes an imp and goes right to alchemizing. So this again. Dave has a bunch of items provided from his future self we haven't seen yet.

  • Dave combines his shades with his phone to make the same iShades that his future self had.

  • Combining the turntables and his pc he makes a portable floating PC. Stronger than the iShades. He will use it for SUBRB.

  • he combines a puppet tux with a red puppet, to make a softer red tux.

  • he tries to combine the Caledscratch (Daves broken sword), and some Ruby Contraband (like the frog John found but red and with ruby for eyes). This one is too expensive with a resource he doesn't have yet. But with the holo attachment he can see it’d make a Broken Scarlet Ribbitar.

  • combining a shitty sword and a Sweet Bro Hella Jeff drawing he makes SORD, a free and crappy item. He can't even hold it apparently as it's a shitty Jpeg.

  • combining a Snoop Dogg photo and mini A/C and Caledscratch makes the Snoop Dogg Snow Cone Machete. It's a weapon.

  • combining a Sweet Bro crawling and a skateboard made the Unreal Air, another free shitty item. It just floats away. He makes and captures a second one.

  • combining a game brom magazine with turntables makes a vintage game brom magazine. It seems that the turntables can make older versions of an item?

  • batarang (batman's boomerang/ninja star thing.) with a poster of the midnight crew. This makes a set of 4 suiterangs. Daves makes a few of these as they are cheap.

  • combining his tux with the midnight crew gives him an all black suit but he says it’s stiff and he doesn't like it.

  • combining his tux with a poster for “The felt” would make a green tux but it needs a green Grist he doesn't have yet.

  • combining a rump plush with a poster for “The felt” makes a Jutting Out And Impudent Felt Plush. Dave's enamoured by it.

  • combining Combine dead things in amber and the rump plush makes a Foam Mutant Smuppet Encased In Amber. This seems useless but Dave likes the direction.

Until now we had been combining with AND (&&) logic Dave tries the previous combination using OR (||) logic. These are logic gates. This makes an Amber Mutant Smuppet Abomination. This is also a useless item but the logic thing is neat.

  • AND combining the Mr. T plush and a fetus in a jar Dave apparently has to make a Foam Fetal Mr. T In A Jar.

At this point Dave's surrounded by underlings. The underlings are too creeped out by Dave circus of freaky abominations so go near him.

  • AND Combining camera and captchalogue card to make a Captcharoid Camera. This item is powerful as it can make a captchalogue card of any item it takes a picture of as a ghost item.

  • AND combination of the fetus in a jar and a self portrait of Dave taken with the Captcharoid Camera. This would make Dave's brain in a Jar, but it's too expensive. But Dave is able to take a picture of the Holorgram.

  • Daves brain in a jar AND a sweet bro drawing OR and the Captcharoid Camera. This SBAHJIFIER cost -1000 artifact grist. This item will make a SBAHJ comic of anything it takes a picture of.


Till tomorrow, build build build, and keep riding the pumpkin tide.
